you should look at getting a ati 4850 video card for the price that you're paying for that card. and if you do maybe switch to this board

Mobo: 650i chipset is old. Get 750i or P45

Video Card: Not worth to spend $150 on 9800GT.
Get 9800GTX+ or HD4850

 

[Dystopia]

looks good, like said, get the 4850, and a newer chipset

 

[Cire353]

Ok I've updated to these.

the 4850 like this one
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814102775
really beats the 9800gtx in all but a few minor stats

 

[Cire353]

I would prefer to get a Nvidia, whats better in the 4850?

 

[Cire353]

Also, can I take a OS off of a old computer, then reinstall it on another? And thanks for the help, I'm sure you get these questions a lot.

think about this hard drive

Sure I can do that.

EDIT: I did some research on the 4850, and I'll get it.

 

[ronster667]

get one more set of that ram

 

[CaptainAwesom]

get one more set of that ram

definitely 4gb has become the standard in ram but it comes down to if you have 64 bit os

 

[Cire353]

I was planing on doing that later on since it's really easy to upgrade.

Good build. There are way's of getting you OS on your HDD on a disk and all, but I dont think we are allowed to discuss that. THIS INTRNET IS NOT FREE!! LOL

Haha, I heard from a friend though that you can do it legally as long as you have the CD key, I don't know if he knows what he talking about though... And would a 600 Watt power supply be enough?

 

[Cire353]

And is there any difference in specs between these cards other?

And this Mobo would work right?

[CaptainAwesom]

either card is fine but i would pick the sapphire card

if you don't plan on having two graphics cards then that motherboard will be fine

 

[Cire353]

Okay that's kinda what I was asking, I don't have plans to get another card but I might want to eventually. Any suggestions for Mobos that would support two cards would be nice, I saw the mobo in one of the first posts but i didn't like it much.

 

[CaptainAwesom]

that motherboard will support 2 cards but the cards will have to be nvidia

 

[Cire353]

Yeah I know, That's an SLI and I need a CrossFire. Do you have any recommendations for a CrossFire supported board?
